“The pulse shooting was a horrendous tragedy for the victims, their families and our entire community,” Orlando Health President and CEO David Strong said in a statement. “During this very trying time, many organizations, individuals and charities have reached out to Orlando Health to show their support. This is simply our way of paying that kindness forward.”

The Orlando Regional Medical Center treated 44 of the more than 50 victims in the nightclub massacre on June 12. The attack left 49 people dead. The facility is just blocks from the Pulse nightclub.

Hospital officials said that the families of the nine victims who died at the Orlando Regional Medical Center won’t be billed either.
